The new isotope 64Ge has been produced via the reaction 64Zn(3He,3n)64Ge, chemically isolated, and its decay studied. Since 64Ge is therefore nucleon stable, it can in principle have an important role in the synthesis of mass 64 by α capture during explosive stellar events, as proposed by Arnett, Truran, and Woosley. However, from the measured half-life (62.3 +/- 2.0 sec) and β-decay systematics, it appears that this mechanism is probably responsible for a negligible fraction of the observed abundance of mass 64.
